Grieving invites the reader to understand the universality of grief, its various expressions, and the depth of emotion experienced within it. In grieving the loss of loved ones, jobs, reputations, and numerous other things, we may begin to doubt the faith that has upheld us throughout our trials. In doubting, though, we open ourselves to further growth by inviting God to share our pain and sorrow and to help us in renewing ourselves in Him.

In the first part of this guide, called "The Retreat," author J. Catherine Sherman offers a deeper understanding of the painful emotions that develop as part of grief, the facets of the journey through the grieving process, and the acceptance that our anger at God may be more typical than we realize. The second part, called "The Journey," presents an examination of the process of grieving, moving through anger, doubt, trust, and eventual surrender to the situation as it stands. Depicted in vivid imagery, these passages transport readers to a place of meditative exploration of grief.

Through thoughtful reflections and resolutions, we are able to take steps into understanding the struggle while moving beyond the initial anger with God or doubt of His love for us and our loved ones.

Most people have much experience in praying to God, but far fewer hear the Father speaking to them in the way that Jesus heard the Father. Clearly people would pray much more if their spiritual communication was to the extent that they talk with one another in the natural sense.

To Pray as Jesus Prayed addresses this obscurity with clear Bible teaching. For example, you will learn how God communicates His voice; why some do not hear God's voice; which images release God's voice in your life; how to be established in prayer by the Lord when you hear His voice; how to overcome the groping so common in prayer life.

To Pray as Jesus Prayed shows you what matters most is not what you say to God, but what God says to you. You can obtain rich fellowship with the Father when His disposition, His attitude, and His true involvement is realized in prayer.

This volume provides a thorough introduction to the major classic and modern writings dealing with religious sacrifice. Collected here are twenty five influential selections, each with a brief introduction addressing the overall framework and assumptions of its author. As they present different theories and examples of sacrifice, these selections also discuss important concepts in religious studies such as the origin of religion, totemism, magic, symbolism, violence, structuralism and ritual performance. Students of comparative religion, ritual studies, the history of religions, the anthropology of religion and theories of religion will particularly value the historical organization and thematic analyses presented in this collection.

"The purpose of a reclusive monk such as myself audaciously presenting a volume like this is to transmit the True Dharma and the Great Compassion of Buddha. In doing this, I wish to highlight the fact that the "Heart Sutra" is an outstanding guidebook for the path to liberation and for the practice of the Buddha Way. This sutra describes the Ultimate Path in a most straightforward manner. I would like you to know that by exerting yourself daily in the way it describes the time will come without a doubt when the results of your effort will manifest."

-Master Kido Inoue

To fully understand the meaning of the "Heart Sutra," one cannot simply follow, or have faith in what it is says, without detailed analysis. "The Heart Sutra" cannot be fully grasped with pure intellect alone. Practicing the True Way requires you to throw away all things and to forget the ego.

When the words are approached with both the mind and the heart, its full understanding will naturally be revealed through practice. Because of this, the guidance of a real Dharma Master (or Roshi)-such as Master Kido Inoue-is required. Here, he shares his teachings in a straightforward and honest fashion.
